This project contributes to a more reliable and accurate measurement of the number and key characteristics of Australian people by supporting a more efficient and effective field design and management of the Census operations. As the Census provides a snapshot of Australia and is crucial to communities, private institutions and all levels of government in the planning of services and facilities, this project not only addresses the research priority of smart information use, but also contributes to strengthening Australia's social and economic fabric. This project will also train highly qualified IT specialists critical to Australia's scientific and industrial development, thus increasing our competitiveness in information technology R&D.Read moreRead less

Efficient spatial data management for enabling true ride-sharing. This data management project aims to examine ride-sharing as a model of a complex decision system that can be optimised to deliver better outcomes. Popular ride-sharing apps have quickly evolved into ride-sourcing services that are comparable to calling a taxi on a mobile phone. Such arrangements miss many of the key benefits of true ride-sharing for the society. The project will model incentives by helping people agree on points ....Efficient spatial data management for enabling true ride-sharing. This data management project aims to examine ride-sharing as a model of a complex decision system that can be optimised to deliver better outcomes. Popular ride-sharing apps have quickly evolved into ride-sourcing services that are comparable to calling a taxi on a mobile phone. Such arrangements miss many of the key benefits of true ride-sharing for the society. The project will model incentives by helping people agree on points of interest rather than directly seeking trips from others to set destinations. It also aims to introduce privacy-aware dynamic matching of sharers, and expand to transportation at large, to generate new shared transportation services. The expected outcome of this project is to elevate today's taxi-like ride-sharing services to true ride-sharing arrangements. This is expected to provide benefits such as reduced traffic and emissions, as well as addressing parking issues and other traffic problems.Read moreRead less
Next generation data mining techniques for analysing large evolving networks. In order to understand complex systems such as the Internet or gene interactions, we need to analyse how the networks in these systems function and evolve. This project will provide new methods for extracting knowledge from large network databases so that scientists can learn about the operation of these complex systems.
Multi source inference from heterogeneous dynamic networks. Sophisticated big data applications in engineering, the social sciences and biology are now generating flows of data across multiple sources possessing a variety of structures. An emerging challenge is how to develop data mining methods that can cope with this complexity and diversity to make inferences and provide practical insights. This project will develop methods in tensor data mining that provide a new foundation for extracting us ....Multi source inference from heterogeneous dynamic networks.

An emerging challenge is how to develop data mining methods that can cope with this complexity and diversity to make inferences and provide practical insights. This project will develop methods in tensor data mining that provide a new foundation for extracting useful knowledge from multi source heterogeneous data sets. This will help accelerate discoveries in the next generation of data driven science.Read moreRead less
Personalised data analytics for the Internet of Me. This project aims to develop data mining methods for extracting comprehensive personalised knowledge, without breaching trust. The Internet of Things will lead to the Internet of Me. Billions of smart devices connected to the Internet record people’s lives. Companies wish to provide highly personalised services that engage their customers, while individuals wish to understand their health, lifestyle, education and personal performance.

The Internet of Things will lead to the Internet of Me. Billions of smart devices connected to the Internet record people’s lives. Companies wish to provide highly personalised services that engage their customers, while individuals wish to understand their health, lifestyle, education and personal performance. The challenge is to analyse individuals’ personal data, and discover how they differentiate from and overlap with others’. This project expects to enable businesses to deepen customer satisfaction and individuals to better understand their personal place in a connected world.Read moreRead less

Mobile communication is a frontier technology, and providing efficient mobile query services to the general public is critical in placing Australia as a leading country in mobile information services. The benefit to Australia nationally is beyond the telecommunication industry. The project will transform other Australian industries which rely on mobile information services, including emergency response services (eg. ambulance, police), mobile workforce and mobile commerce, transportation/traffic controller, bureau of meteorology, defence/army forces, financial market, as well as tourism and news. With the enormous growing of investment in these industries, this project will become a major contribution to national productivity and growth.Read moreRead less
